Yes it is, the games are 4k in size,give or take :wink:

Double dragon, battle toads, Contra, Bad dudes, ice climbers, balloon fight etc

Which nes games are two player?

Be aware that the cord on these are absolutely tiny. 3ft approx.

Good to see it's back in stock. Definitely one for the collection!

I'm just gonna wait for the whole Mini NES console + controller hype to settle down and then pick one up on the cheap. £7.99 is cheap enough as it is for an official and brand new Nintendo controller but wouldn't make much use of it right now.

I know but I don't use Wiimotes a whole lot.

Be cool if you could connect the nes mini to your tablet

Nyko have for $10 but no where ships them yet.

thanks for the heads up OP!!! have some heat

Just to play it on the actual hardware unless of course its being emulated

cold it's not 4k gaming :stuck_out_tongue:

you can't use a nes with a wireless controller.

its just wrong on so many levels

Anyone know of anywhere with stock of the console itself?

Sucky sucky $5

2player B mode 4tw. kill p2 and take their lives. only way I ever managed to complete it on supreme master

Thank you that'll go with the console fab

Thank you so much!!

I preordered the console from Nintendo website but couldn't preorder an extra controller as they were all out of stock. This is perfect as it means the wife and I can start playing the console together from day one.

what plug do these have on? would be nice usb or an adaptor

Anyway to get this working on raspberry pi? (with adapter perhaps) if so could use with RetroPie image.

can you not buy an original nes for about 8 quid? these days? or are they considered "retro and vintage" and therefore are expensive?

They don't come with 30 games and look rubbish on modern tvs.

And cost about 10 times that.

Except the Wii remote won't have anything to connect to as the console doesn't have Bluetooth.

Lol yep retro and expensive an original nes will cost more than nes mini

Will it work with Android box?

like new delivered tomorrow, £5.74.

Nyko? Interesting.

I saw this one yesterday on Amazon ~ https://www.amazon.com/My-Arcade-GamePad-Pro-Ergonomic-Controller/dp/B01M34DLXD/

Unfortunately they don't ship internationally.




You can with a third party controller as such.

Kinda. You can use a Wii to USB port but not sure it works lagless.




Where? NES consoles are going for £30-50 now.

Maybe. Replied to a previous user who's wondering about it.

Sadly that would not work as the gamecube ports are different to the Wiimote plug.

My console's not coming til December, I'm going to have a spare controller for a month :innocent:

The cord length for these controllers is a joke! What were Nintendo thinking...I've cancelled my pre order cause of this deal breaker:(

Oops. Used the wrong image but the whole Wii to USB is still there.

it was amazon warehouse 'like new' condition, not 3rd party. 2 in stock unless sold already

The 3rd party mentioned was in relation to the controller manufacturer, not the seller.
Amazon may well be selling it, but that item is not made by Nintendo and is likely the same as the ones you can buy on eBay for a couple of quid.

hahha nice one :smile:
great deal! heat added :smiley:

So that's what they were doing in the boardroom when I heard her say OMG it's so much longer.

It is crazy. In the following clip you can see them dragging the console around as the lead is so short.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDnPKSICm20

Is the one that comes with the console the same length?

that's the old days of Japan where people (kids) used to sat very close to tvs on floor and play games, not to mention tvs back then were mostly 20"..in Japan usually they used to be even smaller Tv so sitting close to small tv specially on the floor would justify having short cables for controllers.
but now in 2016,every one has large screen tvs and sit on a couch with a good distance so Nintendo's decision to make controller cords of this console so short is plain stupid and makes zero sense.

Gonna have to buy my son a chair now so he can get bad eyes right in front on the telly

I dont think the NES mini detects Wiimotes so im not sure you can use them as wireless controllers with this

good old time...nostalgic :sunglasses:

Your better off getting one from 8BitDo.....



they even do a famicom version...



They have also do SNES and now N64 pads!!!

Those definitely look a lot nicer and more authentic than the one I featured. Never really been a fan of N64's alienfied controller.

That's amazing..you can buy a ps3 for that!

SICK BRO I CAN BUY THIS CONTROLLER WHICH HAS THE SAME AMOUNT OF BUTTONS AS WIIMOTE ACTUALLY IT HAS LESS. SWEET IDEA BRO

srs looks cool but literally no reason to use it over the WIIMOTE unless the dpad is better

Contra is the best :wink:

They sold out?

Still waiting for mine to be delivered :disappointed:

These haven't even been picked for shipping yet... Has anyone got notification of shipping?

Cancelled one of my orders and sent out an email stating that it's one per customer which is a lie

Expired I think and also the link doesn't seem to work.

Just got mine through, turns out these are going for up to £40 on ebay.

Finding it hard to justify holding onto it and the console (£130) when prices are this crazy, even as a fan and casual collector.

They're taking preorders for them

ordered 3, now just to get an NES itself.

Not sure if this has been posted as there is fair bit of chat going on, but you can use the Wii Classic Controller as a controller on the mini nes :sunglasses:.

You know that you can get an extension cable for the controllers for about £1.50 on eBay right?

no you can't.
this thing has cable with plugs similar to Wii mote.
extension cables for it are £10 ash..definitely not £1.50
and will look horrendous with all those lumply plugs attach to each other.

Isn't it just this? Item 192024487285

Is this confirmed?

It is. And pressing the home button on the classic controller take you to the main menu, meaning you don't have to press the reset button on the console itself.

Correct me if I'm wrong but clicked the link and it doesn't go anywhere, and seems to have been removed from GAME website now. I asked instore and apparently Game as a whole sold out on their second preorder (shipment due end of November) the day after release on both console and controller. Decided on release day that it might be a good idea to have that second controller. (fail ha!)

Cold from me, Game emailed to state they no longer guarantee having stock so cancelled order. Lame Game!:disappointed:
